Munster confirm Peter O'Mahony in starting XV for Thomond Park farewell
MUNSTER HAVE CONFIRMED that Peter O’Mahony and Stephen Archer will both start against Ulster for what will be the pair’s final game for the province at Thomond Park.
Ulster have also named Iain Henderson in their starting XV for the URC Round 17 clash tomorrow (live on RTÉ and Premier Sports, 7.35pm).
The Ireland international has not played since the Six Nations in February but will captain the northern province.
Henderson has not featured because of a hamstring injury since England on 1 February but his three-month absence is set to come to an end.
There was further good news for Ulster as winger Robert Baloucoune also returns having last featured in a try-scoring performance against Stomers on 28 March, while full-back Mike Lowry is fit after suffering concussion against Leinster.
